so I will remember

I say this almost every single month, but I really can't believe that February is almost over!! This has been a crazy month filled with snow days, a mommy-daddy get-away, Valentine parties, dinner with friends......all of this on top of our usual hustle and bustle.

Last week, Sienna finally got to celebrate Valentine's Day with her friends at school. The kids had a great time making Valentines for their parents, decorating bags for their own Valentines, and (the hands-down favorite activity)......decorating sugar cookies with loads of icing and sprinkles in every color of the rainbow.

Our morning got off to a little bit of a rough start, so the little princess was not thrilled about me taking pictures of our hand-made Valentines right before she went into class (note the pouty expression).

But her spirits sure lifted when sugar was involved!! Check out her masterpiece....this girl has never met a sprinkle she didn't like :)

And this is the gift we made for Sienna's amazingly wonderful teacher....we are so blessed to have her this year. So simple: a glass jar, filled with Valentine chocolate, tied with pink tulle and pink crystal dangles, and topped off with a vintage rose.

On Saturday, we took the kiddos to the park to play. We met up with their cousin Ned, ate lunch together, and topped off the day at Sprinkles cupcakes.....what could be better??

I think this was when Grant finally got the ball away from his sister.....he doesn't quite grasp the whole kicking concept just yet.......he simply grabs the ball and runs like crazy!!
